How to solve (2(m + 1))/5 = 4

1. Factor the equation (x + 2)(x + 3) = 0. 2. Set each factor equal to zero: x + 2 = 0 and x + 3 = 0. 3. Solve for x: x = -2 and x = -3.

Question

$$\frac { 2 ( m + 1 ) } { 5 } = 4$$

Solve for m

$m=9$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Multiply both sides by $5$.

$$2\left(m+1\right)=4\times 5$$

Use the distributive property to multiply $2$ by $m+1$.

$$2m+2=4\times 5$$

Multiply $4$ and $5$ to get $20$.

$$2m+2=20$$

Subtract $2$ from both sides.

$$2m=20-2$$

Subtract $2$ from $20$ to get $18$.

$$2m=18$$

Divide both sides by $2$.

$$m=\frac{18}{2}$$

Divide $18$ by $2$ to get $9$.

$$m=9$$
